“Our first game against Bush, we didn’t perform very well,” Moore said. “But our game with Seattle Academy, we bounced back. And that gave us a lot of confidence that we can play with anybody.”
The Seattle Academy game was the last time the Cougars allowed a goal. They are 5-0 in May, winning by a combined margin of 30-0.
“Our backline is really good,” Seton Catholic coach Antonio Buckley said. “Not only are they really good at defending, they’re good with the ball. And so when they do get it, they make great decisions, and that allows us to play out. We know that we can score goals, but I know it will also be difficult for other teams to score goals. And I know that Elma scored like 80 goals this season.”
Seton Catholic went on the attack, creating a corner kick in the first minute of play. Moore got the Cougars on the board with his goal in 20th minute.
Elijah Wall fed Angelo with a beautiful cross in the 50th minute to give Seton a 2-0 lead. Petracca, a freshman, capped the scoring with his goal from 30 yards out in the 65th minute.
